Well, it may be a high cost, but this Congress passed the president's one big beautiful bill that provided a tax cut for people with an annual income over $1 million. And It's now costing the taxpayers over $1 trillion. It's added $4.6 trillion to the federal deficit. So I think comparing that to the cost of TRIO and GEAR UP programs, which each cost 1.2 billion annually and provide opportunities for thousands of young people to better themselves is a much better balance of payments.
